“Alexis was amazing with our cat Monty while we were away. We so appreciated the care and attention she gave, as well as the daily updates after her check-ins. We could tell the moment we met her that she really does love animals, and we knew our little guy would get the same love and attention during visits that she gives to her own! She is kind, respectful, trustworthy, and a little bit hilarious (we seriously loved her commentary about our Monty’s antics on our Rover Cards). Already booked her for our next trip!”
“I had Molly come to the house a few times during this past week and Molly was wonderful with Benny, she arrived on time, follow my directions with Benny, left me detailed messages about the visits. I had a weird schedule and she was able to accommodate us. We really appreciate it! And I also got lots of pictures, This was my first time using Rover we’re grateful for Molly, I will definitely have her services again.”
About: Hello! I have 30 years of experience caring for pets. I own an 80lb lover-girl named Lobster and a 10lb rascal-cat named Trinity (from The Matrix!) My schedule is very flexible and I'm available for couch snuggles, energetic playdates, and walkies. My furry companions have other members of the family to care for them at home if I'm pet-sitting overnight. I can drop-in your place, go for walks, stay overnight, give your cat snuggles, or (with your approval) bring your pup(s) to my large fenced-in backyard!
About: I've taken care of every kind of animal. Dogs, cats, chickens, hamsters. I've also administered medication of many kinds and I am certified in Domestic cat + dog first Aid and CPR. All animals deserve love and care no matter how big or small! I am currently working part-time during the weekdays and on weekends in the late evening. My weekend available will change to be fully available after October. Either way, your pets are my first priority! Not all of my animals get along- I have an intricate schedule of alternating my cats and dog to make sure there are no fights or stressing factors. But there is always playtime for all the animals!
About: I have always been around animals since day one! They are the light of my life and my furever passion. Following years of veterinary internships, I had worked as a VCA kennel technician, caring for animals during their overnight stay. Throughout my time, I worked with dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes, ensuring they felt safe, loved, and right at home ❤️. I have training in various fields, including medication administration, animal behavior and hygiene, and nutrition. I have experience working with young, adult, and senior animals. During my time as a zoo intern, I also had the opportunity to care for exotic animals (including reptiles, amphibians, rodents, insects, birds, and mammals). My daily tasks would often consist of socializing, feeding, cleaning, and grooming the animals. I would also administer medication when necessary and lots of love and attention. I genuinely love what I do, and I always coordinate with owners to guarantee exceptional care for their furry (scaley or feathery) loved ones. I currently work full-time but have flexibility at night and on the weekends. I am available for most if not all holidays! I will make sure to keep an updated schedule! I have a large, fenced in backyard and two friendly cats at home. I live in a quiet, residential neighborhood, providing a safe environment to go on walks. I have a spacious house with only adults. I will care for your pet as instructed, including specific diets and training. I am also experienced in grooming and have an at-home salon!
“Julie was absolutely fantastic - communicative, friendly, and too so many really wonderful photos every day. She clearly established a lovely bond with Pumpkin and made her feel safe and comfortable each day I was away. Highly recommended!”
About: I’ve done pet sitting and dog walking since I was 12 years old. Family, friends and neighbors rely on me to care for their pets because this is my passion. I have experience with all types of pets. I currently go to school part time in Holyoke, I have a very flexible schedule! I have tons of extra time to give your pet all the love they need. I go into your home, take care of whats required by you, and leave your pet happy and well taken care of. No strings attached.
“Tania was the best!!! She stayed in constant communication and sent so many pictures of Stevie! Every time I checked the camera after Tania left, Stevie looked so happy and content! Highly recommend”
“Adara did a fabulous job taking care of Mr. Toby today during her two drop-in visits today! Toby clearly loves her by the photos she shared! I appreciate Adara's clear communication, and I feel comfortable/confident having her in my home while I'm away. Thanks, Adara!”
About: What does a Disney princess, & dr.dolittle have in common with me? Animals tend to trust & understand us. I find happiness in caring for animals & understand the guilt when you have to go somewhere without your companion. I’m reliable, communicative & take really great photos I’d love to share with you! I work remote, and would like to utilize my abilitity to be home during my breaks and lunch hour, to assist other with their animal care needs. Happy to follow your schedule & system that works in your home. I understand consistency with your companion & keeping in contact so you’re aware of everything that’s happening while you’re away. I understand that piece of mind is everything.
“Lily was extremely helpful when my previously booked sitter cancelled at the last minute. She was friendly and able to respect our home's dietary restrictions. She was a lifesaver! My senior car was cared for, and the house was in order upon our return. Lily provided occassional updates on how things were going and a few photos. She always responded quickly to messages despite a time difference. We'd be open to hiring Lily again.”
About: I have grown up with dogs, cats, guinea pigs, fish etc. My biggest joke is I take care of other people’s pets so I don’t bring home any other animals. I own 3 cats myself. I work with all breeds and love what I do. I take care of all pets as if they were my own. I work full time at WestMass ElderCare. I am at work for 8 hours. . On my breaks I love giving pets and kisses to the fur babies! I own a 1 bedroom condo. I board on a case to case basis. Your dog must be ok with a leash, somewhat smaller space and be ok ignoring cats. (I own 3)
“Patricia was fantastic and absolutely the right person to care for our four kitties while we were away. I’m a Rover sitter myself, so I have high expectations - Patricia met every one. She sent frequent pictures of the cats looking happy and healthy, receiving love and getting play time in. She was responsive to our texts and followed every instruction to a T - and I left her a seven page document with instructions, LOL. so it was a lot for her to do/remember but really she executed flawlessly. She left our home in the same condition she found it, which is a key hallmark of a great sitter, in my opinion. She also took out the trash and retrieved mail and packages as asked. I would enthusiastically recommend Patricia to any cat parent looking for someone kind, communicative, and responsible to care for their fur babies!”
About: I have owned and cared for dogs, cats, birds, rodents and reptiles. I have experience with bottle feeding kittens and training puppies. I am comfortable with administering medications. I am available to run, walk and hike with dogs. I am an independent contractor so extremely flexible with scheduling. I am available early morning, afternoon, evenings and overnight. I am also available on weekends. I am more than happy to schedule a free meet and greet in clients home, prior to first visit or overnight stays. It is extremely important for your pet to be comfortable with me in their home!.
“Shannon took great care of our fur babies while we were away. Litter box was cleared and furballs picked up! Kitties were very happy to have her visits and give pets! Would absolutely use her service again! Great communication 👍🏽”
About: I have sixteen years of cat care experience, including my own cat, who lived in four states and five apartments with me. I like to make sure cats are happy and well fed.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 917 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Hampden. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
